• W2567232832 abstract "1. It is notoriously difficult to assess the exact meaning of Max Weber's distinction between means-end-rational and value-rational behavior. In his paper Johannes Wei& tries to elucidate this distinction and to overcome some of the problems of Weber's account by equating rationality with com­ municability. This seems to be an interesting approach, though it certainly has some problems of its own, especially since the concept of communica­ bility remains rather unexplained. In my paper, however, I don't want to deal with the question whether Wei&'s approach is likely to lead to systematically satisfactory results, but rather concentrate on the question what we can learn from Weber's original texts. For in my opinion this is the first question one has to· ask if one wants to understand the meaning of the distinction between means-end-rational and value-rational behavior. And to this question, I think, Wei& has given too little attention. If one scans what Weber himself wrote on the aforesaid distinction, however, one immediately discovers the surprising fact that this distinction occurs only once in Max Weber's works - in the introductory chapter 'Basic Sociological Terms' of his main work Economy and Society. 1 There are no similar formulations elsewhere in his theoretical writings and, what is even more remarkable, Weber made no use of this distinction in his material sociological analyses either. 2 Therefore, the only way to understand what Weber was driving at in making the distinction between means-end-rationality and value-rationality seems to be to reconstruct the context in which this distinction is made, that is, to analyse the structure of the first seven par­ agraphs of the first chapter of Economy and Society. This is what I am going to do in this paper. And I think that this analysis will indeed throw some light on the distinction we want to understand by showing what role Weber meant it to play in his system of 'basic sociological terms' and especially by clarifying the close connection between this distinction and the distinction between goal-oriented and value-oriented behavior. 2. So let us start with the first paragraph of the chapter 'Basic Sociological Terms'. In this paragraph Weber begins by giving his famous definition: Soci­ ology [ ... ] is a science concerning itself with the interpretative understanding" @default.
